Defective

Our gel does not look at all like the pictures or other customers'. Ours is a small block shriveled up, not taking up most of the space like others. Did we get a defective one? Confused! Would love a new one.

Do not buy!

Terrible purchase. You pay for the ant farm AND the ants. I was ok with that considering my son was so excited. The ants didn't even last a week! They buried the ants that arrived dead and then they all balled up and were slowly dying. Terrible!

Terrible design

The gel does not cover all the areas leaving a gap on the sides that the ant would fall into and be unable to escape. After having to buy ants and then almost immediately watch them die with the kids watching was just horrible. Plus the lid on top just goes on without being fastened into place securely. With two young kids and pets its advisable to make it very difficult for the ant to escape even if the Factory tips over.

This is not a good product

The ants have no idea what to do with this gel stuff other than carry chunks of it elsewhere. Doesn't seem like they like it inside. I ordered two of these things. One for each kid and one of the gel containers collapsed on the ants after they had dug tunnels and made a home for themselves. I just feel bad for the ants.

I won't buy this again

The ants died after a few days, now what ? Do we just throw it away.. seems like a waste. The kids just sits on top which made me feel uncomfortable as a parent and these harvester ants can bite! We put a small piece of tape over the top to give an ease of mind.
